The paintings were commissioned by the Jefferson Hotel and graced the lobby of the hotel located on the corner of Washington and Dubuque streets for many years before they were removed for renovation and never put back up.
“Stage Ready” is the sixth mural in the series and depicts the impending departure of a stage coach in Iowa City circa. 1855, as reported in Bob Hibbs's "Historic Scenes by Mildred Pelzer 1934." The original brochure that accompanied the mural's dedication describes the scene in this manner: “Band boxes and carpet bags were loaded on top and nine or ten persons wedged inside the four-horse Concord coach. The fare to Des Moines was $10 and at one tavern a breakfast of fried pork, dry bread, and spring water cost $.50. Note the driver--the horses are being changed, and the frontier minister is bidding his farewells. Along the stage route frequent stops were made to water the horses and ‘to brandy the gentlemen.’”
The painting is temporarily on display (May 2017-August 2018) at the Iowa City/Johnson County Senior Center while its permanent home, Longfellow Elementary School, is undergoing renovation.
The painting is “oil on canvas” and measures approximately four feet high by twelve feet wide.
This digital photograph of the painting was taken by Cheryll Clamon.

The paintings were commissioned by the Jefferson Hotel and graced the lobby of the hotel located on the corner of Washington and Dubuque streets for many years before they were removed for renovation and never put back up.
“Railroad Arrives” is the seventh mural in the series and depicts the January 1, 1856 completion of a railroad connection between the Mississippi River and Iowa City as reported in Bob Hibbs's "Historic Scenes by Mildred Pelzer 1934." The story behind the event depicted adds high drama to the scene as described in the dedication brochure: “’The Railroad Comes to Iowa City’ is an animated scene in a temperature of -25 degrees. The road was to receive a bonus of $50,000 if it could be brought to the Iowa City depot on or before January 1, 1956. On New Year’s Eve the engine was still a thousand feet from the goal. Peter A. Dey and LeGrand Byington are urging the men to win the bonus. With only a few hours left, the engine froze up and was then pushed and pried on the track to the depot. The bells of the city pealed triumphantly.”
The painting is temporarily on display (May 2017-August 2018) at the Iowa City Public Library while its permanent home, Longfellow Elementary School, is undergoing renovation.
